Joe Biden won the 2020 election by consistently and falsely presenting himself as a political moderate who desperately wants to unify America.
In reality, Biden’s ideology is much further to the left than his campaign was ever willing to admit. Additionally, his policies are designed to impose the ideas of the left on all states, the exact opposite approach a president would take if he or she were truly interested in uniting the country.
But do not take my word for it. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.)—the face of the modern socialist movement in the United States—has repeatedly suggested Biden could be America’s“most progressive president”in nearly 100 years.
However, that does not mean that President Biden is a Marxist socialist. Rather than support policies designed to usher in absolute wealth equality and common property ownership, Biden aims to control the economy using the strategies outlined by supporters of the “Great Reset,” a far-left movement supported by countless leaders at many of the world’s most influential international institutions and multinational corporations and banks, including the World Economic Forum, United Nations, International Monetary Fund, Bank of America, and Microsoft.
As Klaus Schwab, the head of the World Economic Forum, has explained, the purpose of the Great Reset is to get governments and international corporations to work together to “act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working conditions.”
Supporters of this movement, which includes President Biden and his administration’s “climate czar,”John Kerry, plan to “reset” the global economy using two strategies.
The first is to create or expand large government programs that seek to merge left-wing causes with jobs programs, such as Biden’s $2 trillion energy and infrastructure plan.
The second strategy is to completely transform the way businesses—especially large multinational corporations—operate by coercing them into promoting leftist ideas in exchange for government funding, tax breaks and other special treatment, and by using taxes and regulations to punish businesses that do not support left-wing causes.
When the Biden administration recently shut down the construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline, which was projected to create or support more than 40,000 jobs, many of which would have been union jobs, the move was completely in line with the principles of the Great Reset.
The purpose of stopping the Keystone XL pipeline was not to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions. (The Obama-Biden administration admitted in five separate reports that the pipeline expansion would not have a significant impact on greenhouse gasses.) It was meant to punish the oil industry and its many workers for not being sufficiently “green.”
The death of the Keystone XL pipeline is just the beginning, though. The Biden administration is now seeking to institutionalize Great Reset principles throughout the federal government, and in so doing, expanding the ability of the administrative state in Washington, D.C., to control economic activity and push companies to promote left-wing ideas.
One of the ways the Biden administration is planning to exercise greater control over the economy is through the creation of a new agency called theMade in America Office, which will be housed within the Office of Management and Budget.
The primary focus of the Made in America Office will be to ensure that the U.S. government,“whenever possible, procure goods, products, materials, and services from sources that will help American businesses compete in strategic industries and help America’s workers thrive.”
Requiring U.S. federal agencies to rely less on foreign businesses and manufacturers is a noble cause that many on the ideological left and right support, but the Biden administration isn’t stopping there. It also plans to use the Made in America Office to redirect spending toward only those companies willing to promote progressive causes.
According to a January 25 statement by the Biden White House, the executive order creating the Made in America Office “is deeply intertwined with the President’s commitment to invest in American manufacturing, including clean energy and critical supply chains, grow good-paying, union jobs, and advance racial equity.”
In other words, the Made in America Office (MAO) will not only require federal agencies to rely less on foreign business interests and manufacturers, it will also redirect funding so that only those businesses that support “clean energy” and “union jobs” and are working to “advance racial equity” are able to secure a federal contract.
Depending on how seriously the Made in America Office takes these directives from the Biden administration, the MAO agency could have a remarkable impact on the behavior of businesses throughout the economy.
The federal government spends hundreds of billions of dollars per year procuring goods and services. According to the White House, “Contracting alone accounts for nearly $600 billion in federal spending.” If these funds are used as a tool to shape the behavior of U.S. businesses in line with left-wing goals, then the federal government will undoubtedly be taking a major step toward embracing the Great Reset.
There is, of course, nothing wrong with asking businesses to avoid truly harmful pollution and to enact policies that ensure people are not being denied services or job opportunities on the basis of race, religion, gender, etc. But the left has over the past two decades expanded concepts such as “pollution” and “racial equality” to include much more than polluted rivers and fair treatment of minorities.
Will the Made in America Office, for example, be empowered to force government agencies to only do business with companies who have the “right” ratio of Hispanic workers to Asian workers, regardless of whether a better alternative is available? Or the “appropriate” number of electric cars? Or the highest number of union workers, regardless of how much additional taxpayer money it could cost working families?
Based on the vague language provided by the White House, it is certainly possible, and that should trouble all Americans.
Extremely deeply baked into every American are the notions of fairness and personal freedom. (Examine your own heart...) Even among the most severe authoritarians, they believe THEY deserve to be free, and treated with fairness. (Along with their associates and friends.)
This programming is many generations in propagation from grandparents and parents and peers into EVERY American. It is a constant condition from the very earliest toddler days that new humans (children) experience in thousands of small things, and constantly. I suspect America may be unique in this. (I don’t know: I’ve lived all my life here.)
Put extremely, The Code Of The West (Objective Justice) is in all of us. Nobody knowingly forges his own chains.
The navel-gazing fools in the District of Criminals are so deeply steeped in belief in their own Righteousness, and their Entitlement as Rulers, that they can’t honestly perceive that The Deplorables in Flyoverland, and The Common Working People aren’t willing “subjects” to authoritarianism.
The D.C. fools are insensitive that an explosion is brewing. At some point, they WILL Go Too Far — probably in some small thing, and she’ll blow. They’ll be surprised. They will see it as a small thing they can deal with and suppress; but since they’re dealing from erroneous fundamental concepts, everything they do will be wrong — and it’ll spiral out of control into full-blown Revolution.
The crystal grows dim at this point, but It’s Coming, and as things are now, nothing will stop it.
I submit that this is a Good Thing, and after a lot of pain and fear, long-term, it will ultimately end well — because Liberty is what all people desire at the deepest and most irresistible level.
Joe Biden can’t even move his own bowels. He’s clearly a puppet.
Methinks the “great reset” that group of slime molds are going to receive is not what they think they are going to receive.
They are sub human vermin and should be treated as such.
It’s not war yet, folks, but it WILL be. Count on it.
Isn’t this the textbook definition of fascism?
bump
Over dead bodies...
“Great Reset” means billions die.
Interesting that’s never mentioned.
True dat.
Nothing like a near death experience to wake up the people. We can see clearly now, the tsunami is about to destroy the USA.
Except Trump isn’t finished yet.
Come on now. Hasn’t even been two full weeks yet. We’ll get there. Surely OWB, jen sackee O 💩 will ‘circle back’ to the answer. What was the question again? 😒😯😆
The Great Reset and Build Back Better (The new religion?)
Top political figures and Big Tech leaders are using the common refrain that the COVID-19 pandemic has provided an opportunity to “reset” and “build back better”
Founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF) Klaus Schwab first started circulating the idea of The Great Reset, of which “build back better” is an integral part of the COVID-19 pandemic is being used as a justification for the movement, but the agenda has nothing to do with health and everything to do with a long-term plan to monitor and control the world through technical surveillance
Citing pandemic-induced unemployment, record levels of global government debt and a shrinking world economy, Schwab warns that the COVID-19 crisis is going to exacerbate environmental issues and social crises, such as rising inequality
The reset solution is to “build entirely new foundations for our economic and social systems,” which everyone should adapt to since the pandemic has “shown how quickly we can make radical changes to our lifestyles”
“Building back better” envisions a world in which you’re tied to an electronic ID linked to your bank account and health records, have a “social credit” ID that can run every facet of your life and own no personal property Top political figures and Big Tech leaders are using the common refrain that the COVID-19 pandemic has provided an opportunity to “reset” and “build back better.” But what does it really mean to “build back better”?
Founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF) Klaus Schwab first started circulating the idea of The Great Reset, of which “build back better” is an integral part.
“There is an urgent need for global stakeholders to cooperate in simultaneously managing the direct consequences of the COVID-19 crisis,” WEF states on their Great Reset website. So WEF started The Great Reset initiative as a method to “improve the state of the world.”1
It’s a lofty description but again one that actually tells you nothing. “Build back better” is a tagline of sorts for The Great Reset, and though this is being played off as a new initiative, it’s simply a rebranding of terms for technocracy and the old “New World Order.”
An elite oligarchy is behind this technocratic plan to govern society through technology, programmed by scientists and technicians and automated through the use of artificial intelligence, rather than through democratically elected politicians and government leaders.
COVID-19 Used to Justify the Need to ‘Build Back Better’
The current pandemic is being used as a justification for the movement, but the agenda has nothing to do with health and everything to do with a long-term plan to monitor and control the world through technical surveillance. As Schwab wrote, “There are many reasons to pursue a Great Reset, but the most urgent is COVID-19.”2
Citing pandemic-induced unemployment, record levels of global government debt and a shrinking world economy, Schwab warns that the COVID-19 crisis is going to exacerbate environmental issues and social crises, like rising inequality. The solution? “We must build entirely new foundations for our economic and social systems.”3 Fortunately, he writes, there is a silver lining to the pandemic and that is “it has shown how quickly we can make radical changes to our lifestyles.”4
This will be key to “building back better,” which envisions a world in which you’re tied to an electronic ID linked to your bank account and health records, and have a “social credit” ID that can run every facet of your life. Schwab detailed three main components of The Great Reset agenda:5
1.Steer the Market Toward “Fairer Outcomes” — “To this end, governments should improve coordination (for example, in tax, regulatory and fiscal policy), upgrade trade arrangements and create the conditions for a ‘stakeholder economy.’”
Also known as stakeholder capitalism, Forbes described stakeholder economy as “the notion that a firm focuses on meeting the needs of all its stakeholders: customers, employees, partners, the community and society as a whole.”6
The idea of stakeholder capitalism has been around since at least 1932, and was also endorsed by nearly 200 CEOs of large corporations in August 2019.7 However, it is now being accelerated as part of The Great Reset.
“At a time of diminishing tax bases and soaring public debt, governments have a powerful incentive to pursue such action,” Schwab wrote. “Moreover, governments should implement long-overdue reforms that promote more equitable outcomes. Depending on the country, these may include changes to wealth taxes, the withdrawal of fossil-fuel subsidies and new rules governing intellectual property, trade and competition.”8
Yet, as Forbes pointed out, forms of stakeholder capitalism have already been tried and failed, because balancing conflicting stakeholder claims was near-impossible and only led to mass confusion and poor returns. The failure of this strategy is what led big businesses to focus on maximizing shareholder value instead.
2.Ensure That Investments Advance Shared Goals — Shared goals, such as equality and sustainability, should be at the heart of government and private investments, and rather than funneling government recovery funds and economic-stimulus funding to “fill cracks in the old system,” these should be used to “create a new one that is more resilient, equitable and sustainable in the long run.”
Schwab added, “This means, for example, building ‘green’ urban infrastructure and creating incentives for industries to improve their track record on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics.”9 It all sounds well and good, except, as Technocracy News reported in June 2020, “the promised Utopia comes with a price — it sets shackles on our personal freedom …”10
The required sacrifices do not apply to the technocrats running the system, so ultimately The Great Reset will result in two tiers or people: the technocratic elite, who have all the power and rule over all assets, and the rest of humanity, who have no power, no assets and no say-so in anything.
3.Harness the Innovations of the Fourth Industrial Revolution — The Fourth Industrial Revolution, which Schwab has been discussing since at least 2016,11 “is characterized by a fusion of technologies that is blurring the lines between the physical, digital and biological spheres.”
In terms of government, the Revolution will bring new technological powers that allow for increased population control via “pervasive surveillance systems and the ability to control digital infrastructure.”12 As for as its effects on people, Schwab writes:13
“The Fourth Industrial Revolution, finally, will change not only what we do but also who we are. It will affect our identity and all the issues associated with it: our sense of privacy, our notions of ownership, our consumption patterns, the time we devote to work and leisure, and how we develop our careers, cultivate our skills, meet people, and nurture relationships.
It is already changing our health and leading to a ‘quantified’ self, and sooner than we think it may lead to human augmentation. The list is endless because it is bound only by our imagination.”

Increased Surveillance Is Necessary for the Reset
The planned reform will affect everything from government, energy and finance to food, medicine, real estate, policing and even how we interact with our fellow human beings in general. Part of this involves increased surveillance, which is already being rolled out in the name of public health.
Vaccine passports are one example. Hastily ushered in as a byproduct of the COVID-19 pandemic, they’re expected to become “widely available” during the first half of 2021.14
If the initiative is successful, you’ll likely be required to pull up a vaccine certificate on your phone showing when and where you were vaccinated, along with which type of vaccine, in order to get on a plane or attend an indoor event, such as a concert, for starters.
WEF and the Commons Project created the Common Trust Network, which developed the CommonPass app that’s intended to act as a health passport in the near future. The app allows users to upload medical data such as a COVID-19 test result or proof of vaccination, which then generates a QR code that you will show to authorities as your health passport.15
The proposed common framework “for safe border reopening” around the world involves the following:16
Every nation must publish their health screening criteria for entry into the country using a standard format on a common framework Each country must register trusted facilities that conduct COVID-19 lab testing for foreign travel and administer vaccines listed in the CommonPass registry Each country will accept health screening status from foreign visitors through apps and services built on the CommonPass framework
Patient identification is to be collected at the time of sample collection and/or vaccination using an international standard
The CommonPass framework will be integrated into flight and hotel reservation check-in processes Eventually, the CommonPass framework will be integrated with already existing personal health apps such as Apple Health and CommonHealth. If you want to travel, your personal health record will be evaluated and compared to a country’s entry requirements, and if you don’t meet them, you’ll be directed to an approved testing and vaccination location.
Privacy concerns are still being raised, however, which is why every effort is being made to get people to loosen their views on the right for privacy. In the U.S., there’s also the Constitution that stands in the way, which is why efforts to undermine, circumvent, ignore or nullify it are increasing.
Even Food Will Be Affected
For those who control resources like food, power is limitless, and control of the food supply is also part of “building back better.” WEF has partnered with the EAT Forum, which will set the political agenda for global food production. The EAT Forum was cofounded by the Wellcome Trust, which in turn was established with the financial help of GlaxoSmithKline.
I must have missed the part where “biden won”
Stole is the correct term
joe doesn’t have a clue,,,,he is told to sign on the dotted line and he does what he is told. His actions are totally orchestrated by someone else.
Joe Biden didn’t win by presenting himself as a moderate. He won by means of massive voter fraud.
Great insightful article everyone should read.
